ChipGroup
Introduction
The ChipGroup components render a set of chips as either a single-selection group (MtChipRadioGroup) or a multiple-selection group (MtChipCheckboxGroup). They share the same underlying Mantine Chip.Group and are useful for filters, tags, or compact option lists.
It is included within the following NPM package: @react-form-builder/components-mantine.
Component variants
- MtChipRadioGroup – single selection; value is a single string.
- MtChipCheckboxGroup – multiple selection; value is an array of strings.
Differences between variants
| Component | Selection type | Value shape | Typical use case |
|---|---|---|---|
| MtChipRadioGroup | Single selection | string | Pick one option from a chip list |
| MtChipCheckboxGroup | Multiple selection | string[] | Select multiple chips (filters, tags) |
MtChipRadioGroup
Chip-based radio group that enforces a single selected value. It behaves similarly to a classic radio group but uses chips as the interactive elements.
MtChipCheckboxGroup
Chip-based checkbox group that lets the user select any subset of chips. It is best suited for filters and tag-style multi-select.
